What is Novacura Flow:

low-code dedicated to expanding ERP systems

 

A perfect mix

 

Novacura Flow is a versatile software suite that helps modify and widely expand ERP systems. Novacura Flow is basically a low-code platform, where customers can build their own ERP applications by simply drawing them in a specific app designer. But Novacura Flow goes beyond the low-code definition, and it also offers business process management (BPM) capabilities and connectivity features typically reserved for integration platforms.

It all, together with end-user applications that run on every device and the library of industry applications available in the Novacura Marketplace, makes Novacura Flow the most complete software package to eliminate the limitations of ERP systems.

ERP applications builder with low-code philosophy

In our low-code platform, all applications are created in a specific application designer (Novacura Flow Studio). Instead of writing lines of code, designers create apps by drawing processes supported by the application. They can also easily communicate with the ERP system by using a dedicated ERP connector. Then, with just one click, they can publish the application for the end-users so that users can use it on various devices.

User interface for every type of user

Applications created in Novacura Flow can be run on any device type: mobile phones, tablets, and desktops (as a web-based application). It can even be used on barcode scanners. Our mobile user interface is simple and optimized to be clicked a thousand times per hour (i.e. to report logistic operations). In parallel, Novacura Flow offers a sophisticated web-portal interface, that is perfect for presenting dashboards, reports or performing complex operations like planning and scheduling.

Dedicated features supporting the most demanding industries

The typical low-code / BPM platforms are designed to mainly support business processes that exist in offices - like invoice acceptance, agreement flow, procurement, or support request processing. Novacura Flow goes beyond the air-conditioned offices. It offers specific features (like barcodes support, offline mode, and mobile printing) so it can easily act in a warehouse, on a shop floor, or out in the field.

Business process management (BPM)

Novacura Flow applications are created in a graphical way. All application steps (user interaction, data operations, connectivity with other systems etc.) are connected in a workflow that represents a business process. Novacura Flow can be used as a process layer for the ERP and can control complex processes that involve different people, systems, and various modules of the ERP. It also helps you optimize processes by gathering stats and measuring them.

Deep ERP Integration

Novacura Flow is not just another low-code platform. Our primary design assumption is that it must work seamlessly with the most popular ERP systems. Novacura Flow is equipped with dedicated ERP connectors, that use only official ERP APIs to get access to ERP data and functions offered by ERP. These connectors can be easily configured and used in applications created in Novacura Flow.

Integration platform capabilities

Novacura Flow can act as an integration platform. It is equipped with 50+ connectors to the most popular business systems, cloud platforms and cloud services. Thanks to that, Novacura Flow applications can orchestrate the integration between multiple systems. Moreover, each Novacura Flow application can be called by an external system as a web-service – so Novacura Flow can act as a service bus.

Technology bridge for the ERP

Novacura Flow can be used as a bridge to the latest technologies for the ERP system. It offers connectivity to cloud services like Artificial intelligence (AI), Document recognition, Computer vision, or Augmented reality. It also supports physical equipment integration, which is important for specific industries. It can be connected to gauges, machines, robots or vehicles.

Library of applications and components

Novacura Flow is a next-generation low-code platform, where you don’t need to create applications from scratch. Thanks to our marketplace, you get access to dozens of ERP applications prepared to meet your industry needs. You can also use these apps as great examples on how to interact with the ERP or other systems. It all helps IT to react quicker to the needs that come from the business!

Avoid ERP modifications

Thanks to deep ERP integration, you can treat Novacura Flow as an alternative user interface for the ERP. You can implement all additional requirements for the ERP as Novacura Flow applications, and keep the ERP free of modifications. It gives you better evidence of “customizations” and you don´t need to recreate modifications when upgrading the ERP. This really helps to implement an “evergreen ERP” strategy.
